190 Hizbullah Rockets Rain down on Israel
21 Wounded

There had been some question about whether Hizbullah’s ability to hit Israel with rockets had been degraded, or whether it was just observing the 48 hour air cease fire. On Wednesday it cleared the mystery up. The indiscriminate firing of rockets on civilian targets wounded 21 persons and one hit the Palestinian West Bank. Among the rockets fired was a long-distance Khaybar II. Targeting civilians or unnecessarily endangering them is a war crime.

As for Israeli attacks on civilians and life-sustaining civilian infrastructure in Lebanon, this site has a useful map and frequent updates.
